Project Z Sauvignon Blanc

The grapes were picked very early in the morning and whole bunch pressed. Special care was taken to keep the juice and the wine in an environment free from oxygen to preserve the delicate fruit aromas. The juice was transferred to an amphora for fermentation and left on the lees to spend a further six months maturing on the lees in the amphora. The wine was bottled straight from the amphora, unfiltered and not fined.

The fruit for this wine is from a sea-facing block of Sauvignon Blanc in the Faure area. One corner of the block is particularly shale-rich, and it is the grapes from just this corner that was used to create this unique Sauvignon blanc.
